Back to the Bigs

A look at the standings says this is a game the Sabres can’t afford to let slip away. With San Jose coming to town on Friday, this is the best chance the Sabres have to get points at home this week. A split at the very least is going to be necessary, and their best chance for that split is tonight.

Gerbe is up, as Dan Paille is still searching for his game. He lost it sometime over the summer, so he’s got a lot of ground to cover. Ottawa is still awful, and Ryan Miller is in net.

The hat in honor of Atlas. This could turn out to be a very long month.

7:30 from HSBC. I’m on the couch tonight, but it honestly may be a better view with HD.
